yeah! what he said. kurt deserves some props not some insults. he might be one of the few here in any position to comment legitimately on AB's attempt. Seeing as AB summitted and Kurt didn't maybe AB should comment on Kurt's attempt I wonder what her opinions are on smoking hashish at elevation Messner-Sabir style? Seeing as she was aiding up on oxygen I bet it could have caused an explosion!

the clip unclipped - while the tool should have been dangling from wrist it dropped. in one case the spring on the clip actually bent out of shape and the spring was levering down, not up, on the clip.... basically i think it was either because of plunging shaft or torquing the shaft in a crack that it (spring on clip) got bent in the first place. i didnt really find the androids all that much better in the alpine. i like them a lot more for water ice but the route we were climbing was not steep ice so the detachable clip didnt make gear placement any easier. i am going to put my old saf'lock leashes back on for the summer.

Well obviously that's the proof we needed. Dan - style. So what is the current Speed record for Infinite Bliss?

yeah, if you wrap tape around the gate i have to cut the tape off to booty the biner

A big shout out to Dan Peterson who GAVE me the 1969 Glenn Woodsworth Squamish Chief guide for free because he thought a Canadian sprayer should own it Also to Harry Majors for some free issues of NW Discovery even if they haven't entirely persuaded me that Henry Custer made as many first ascents as Harry claims he did. Anyone else with rare, oop or obscure guidebooks they would like to donate to me - send PM for address

i actually thought the sword fights were pretty cool when i was like 8 years old. but weaving flax and shoeing horses? no way!

i heard she's gonna be on the cover of alpinist 7

i am going to see how many w00ks i can spot better than star trek meets d&d

which week is balloon to work week?

The new route by Freedom Fighter etc is not Barley scrubbing but a new 5.12 that is in one of the new route books. I think the Climb On one but it might be MEC. Also at the top of GFL area there is the new Skyline Arete which goes up the slab arete I think it is 10d A0?

oh yeah, put foot in mouth, avoid graceful exit by compounding proof of own error, then claim those who are pointing it out are "attacking" ---> I am laughing at you not with you

hey is that that area with all those crags up above the road? the custom knife shop or whatever?

Well shit, the journal's where I found it I guess you were too busy reviewing the new Arcteryx lingerie to keep up?

What part of "no one is going to bitch about this thing being overbolted" and "the lower-rated pitches are runout" did you miss although i guess i was remembering the 1 bolt pitch statement on the 5.1 actually

Note to Layton, trees growing at a 30 degree angle from vertical look so suck

You must have got that Culbert guide from your Dad ----> <----- green with envy

I can't believe they banned Dan -!!!!

"Ranger, Ranger Rick, Ranger, Ranger Rick, Yogi has an enemy..."
